The Penguin

But however close you can get to that, that's, that's the goal, right? 'Cause that, that's the best that you can do, right? Um, so I think-- I would imagine, though, this is probably pretty close to what they were imagining this show 'cause it's, it's just really good.

I mean, I'm trying to think, like, I don't wanna be hyperbolic and compare this to Penguin dude, but I can't think of anything else that DC's done that's on this level of quality.

You know? Like, it's-

Fair

... it's-

It's been pretty good

... you know, I don't wanna compa- I don't wanna say 'cause probably Penguin just overall, I mean, you know, I d- I don't know.

That show, it, it, it was-- there was multiple things with that show, right? It was-- There was not really a lot, I don't think, else, at least certainly in comic books out on TV that was, like, really gripping people, so it kinda hit at the perfect time.

I would've been...

I was watching The Penguin, actually-

Oh, really?

... at the beginning of the shoot, and it was really hard not to just sort of fall into that Gotham, full Goth...

Was there a moment where, like, Kane's Gotham accent kinda slips out a little bit? 'Cause it's all a farce at this point that she's hiding from.

Did you have a moment where you baked in, like, a, a Freudian slip [laughs] of the accent?

I, I, I suspect I did, 'cause like I said, I was watching The Penguin, and Colin Farrell's so incredible in that, and it's...

I could not stop watching it.

I mean, you've got Kristen Milioti playing a mother who slowly but surely realizes that she used to have a daughter.

Wait, Kristen Milioti, was she Falcone from The Penguin? Yes.

Oh, she's good.

Yeah.
